Better safe than sorry in my book. If they did well on 1.2, I would go with that again....especially since you are watering them thouroghly...which will more than likely release many of the nutrients that are already present in the medium directly into solution/into your plants.

At the very least I think that excess water and *too many nutes* will cause your plants to grow/stretch profusely while you are gone...especially if they are in veg mode or just entering flower.

Worst case scenario..it will jettison the nutes into your plants and fry em big time. Ya don't want that at all costs.

hope that helps.

good luck

No biggie...I'm not into the "rep" thing. I just try to offer up what I know based on my own experiences....nothing more.

just didn't want you to push it while yer gone. Save that for a time in your grow when you can WATCH your plants and their reaction to what you've done.

good luck/happy trails...
